Academic Success
Two Coram Deo students nominated to U. S. Service Academies
Flower Mound,
Sam McKinnon of Argyle was nominated to the U. S. Naval Academy, and Daniel Gregory of Argyle was nominated to the U.S. Naval Academy and the U.S. Air Force Academy. Selection is based on four criteria to ensure the brightest and most dedicated students are chosen: academic performance, leadership potential, moral character and motivation for a military career.
“We are extremely proud of these two young men,” said Coram Deo Academy Headmaster, Rodney Marshall. “Considering the size and presence of many of the public and private schools in Congressman Burgess’ district, it is an honor for us to have two of our students nominated to these prestigious academies.”
